| When making pickles and chutneys, always use a stainless steel or well coated enamel saucepan. Dont use aluminium or copper pans as these metals react with the acid in the fruit and vegetables. |
| Use a funnel to transfer prepared hot chutneys into the jars. Wipe the jars and label them only when cold. |
